On Movies

I am having a great time working on my movie project, which is a good thing because I deleted it by accident after a 14 hour editing session yesterday! Blaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

After throwing up inside my mouth a little bit, I am now focusing on the positives of redoing it better next weekend. At least I still have all the files that comprised the movie. Next time it will be even better. Next time, I'll vomit rainbows.

Give Computers a Break

Youth Learn seems to strike a good balance between promoting technology integration into lots of their projects, and stressing the importance of "real world" learning away from the computer. The "Our Neighborhood" Project, for example, builds science skills and teaches graphing, but has students engage with their own community in several different hands-on ways.
